First mod I'm planning is lighter wheels. Those steel wheels must be heavy and they look like crap. That's a guaranteed mpg improvement for $400.
I'm averaging 28mpg so far in hilly city driving. Pretty good...

Losing to the EPA with a MT isn't considered "pretty good" here. That's not meant as an insult.
